I recently took the OS101 course (now called "Pentesting with BackTrack") and passed the OSCP exam. I have to say, this is by far the best security training I have taken, and likely the best technical training I have taken. I have come away with much more knowledge than I started with, an understanding of concepts that were previously very obscure to me, and a feeling like the knowledge I have justifies me having the certification (I could compare it to another course I've taken and cert I hold, but I'd rather be nice).

Thanks to the Offensive Security staff for putting together an INCREDIBLE course! I would not hesitate to recommend this course to ANYONE trying to get into technical security and penetration testing.

i am quite new at this ... j have very limited knowlege about pentesting and stuff can any one render you advise where do i start and how do i start.. and i would like to take oscp.. but before that..is my question
